In this episode, we conclude our series on the garden of our hearts and explore what it means to cultivate unity—which is especially important as we enter the busy and often stressful holiday season. We talk about the difference between anger and contempt and how contempt can not only fracture relationships but also plant seeds of division in our hearts. We also reflect on how we can respond to discord with humility, a holy curiosity, and a genuine desire to understand. Ultimately, unity begins with love, bears good fruit, and reflects the presence of Christ within us. Heather's One Thing - The Cheesecloth Turkey Basting Method (Example Here) Sister Miriam's One Thing - College Volleyball Playoffs (especially Nebraska) Michelle's One Thing - Twinkling Trees from Walmart Announcement: Our Advent Study begins December 1st, 2025! Journal Questions: Where in my heart am I harboring contempt? What groups of people or individuals do I see as worthless? When was the last time that someone treated you with contempt? How did that impact you? How am I seeking to understand people with different opinions? How is the Lord inviting me to refine and cultivate my tone to speak love to others? When faced with division and disunity, are the movements of my heart and my external actions congruent? Discussion Questions: What differences have you observed between conformity and unity? What differences have you observed between anger and contempt? When are you tempted to roll my eyes, sneer, act with hostility, speak with sarcasm? When is it hardest for you to cultivate unity? Quote to Ponder: "To understand one another and to grow in charity and truth, we need to pause, to accept and listen to one another. In this way, we already begin to experience unity. Unity grows along the way; it never stands still. Unity happens when we walk together." (Pope Francis, Homily at second Vespers on the solemnity of the conversion of St. Paul, Jan. 25, 2015) Scripture for Lectio: "I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all lowliness and meekness, with patience, forbearing one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit… one Lord, one faith, one baptism."

November 2, 2025We centered on God's incomparable nature, redemption through Christ's blood, and the believer's complete sufficiency in Him. Through worship, teaching, and fellowship, the group reflected on how divine love frees believers from comparison, fear, and division—revealing one body united under one Head, Christ.ThemesWorship and Thanksgiving — The meeting opened with songs of gratitude, lifting praise to the Lord for His resurrection and daily mercy.The Reality of Redemption — Judy shared that redemption means being purchased out of sin's marketplace, never to return. Christ paid the full price with His blood, setting believers permanently free.Adopted and Chosen — Discussion of Ephesians 1 emphasized being chosen before the foundation of the world—holy and blameless in His sight. Adoption into sonship was described as God's pleasure and will, rooted in grace and not human striving.The Mystery Revealed — God's plan was portrayed as a mystery now made known in Christ: believers are united in Him, destined for the praise of His glory.Christ's Sufficiency — Edward shared that Christ Himself is each believer's personal and total sufficiency. His love removes comparison, blame, and self-effort, inviting rest and dependence.One Body, One Church — The group discussed the Corinthian letters, noting how Paul addressed division and “party spirits.” They emphasized that the Church is one body under one Head—Christ—and not divided by denomination or comparison.Love That Waits — God's love was described as patient and non-forcing, waiting to be gracious. Like the father of the prodigal son, He anticipates our return without condemnation.Spiritual Growth and Dependence — Paul's example showed that even correction flows from love, not anger. Growth happens through resting in Christ's finished work, not through striving or self-righteousness.The Mind of Christ — The session closed with reflection on resting in one's position in Christ rather than striving to “become” spiritual. True balance comes from depending on God's love, which removes competition and judgment within the Body.What We LearnedWe have been bought out of sin's power and belong fully to Christ.Our identity as holy and blameless exists in His sight, not by self-effort.Christ's sufficiency ends all comparison, pride, and performance.The Church is one body; division and party zeal oppose love's unity.God's love corrects gently, without violating free will or removing His gaze.True growth happens by resting, receiving, and reflecting His love toward others.Even when others misunderstand or reject us, love remains the answer.Dependence on Christ protects the believer from reacting in the flesh.Reflection QuestionWhere do we still rely on our own sufficiency, and how can we let Christ's love become the only measure of our identity and unity?

Pastor Jamaal Williams preaches from Ephesians 4:17-32 on October 12, 2025.
While most folks are aware of the sought-after effects of substances like alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, and THC, they are less knowledgeable about what these substances really do to the body as a whole. Andrew Lokuta, an instructor in Human Physiology, discusses how the most commonly abused substances affect the body's systems. The State of Wisconsin's Dose of Reality campaign is at Dose of Reality: Opioids in Wisconsin.

Send us a text1 Corinthians 12:12-31 - One Body, Many Parts
Practicing the Spiritual Gifts | Part 4: One Body, Many GiftsThe New Testament names 21 different gifts, which fall into three broad categories—power, word, and love. Though these gifts have sometimes been misunderstood or misused, Scripture presents them as essential for the life of the church. Together we'll explore how God has uniquely gifted each believer to serve the church, to build up the body, and to bless the world.Teaching Text: 1 Corinthians 12:12-31Preached by Paul Khochay
Pastor Jamaal Williams preaches from Ephesians 4:11-16 on October 5, 2025.
Let all of us, together, humbly use the various gifts given to us by God to build up the body of Christ.
Pastor Jamaal Williams preaches from Ephesians 4:7-13 on September 28, 2025.
From the car you prefer to drive to the way you like to spend your free time, our lives are filled with choices we make that can divide us. So how can we, as followers of Jesus, find a way to be united when there are so many things that try to pull us apart? At the communion table, we're reminded that no matter our differences, we are one body: the body of Christ.
Romans 12:1-8 English Standard VersionA Living Sacrifice12 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.Gifts of Grace3 For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. 4 For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, 5 so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. 6 Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; 7 if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; 8 the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.English Standard Version (ESV)The ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.

Pastor Jamaal Williams preaches from Ephesians 4:1-6 on September 21, 2025.
In this sermon, John covers Paul's letter to Corinthians where he discusses the aspect of the differences in the body of Christ, yet how they are drawn together as one. While we each are blessed with unique gifts, those gifts are designed to build up the body of Christ.
Pastor Jesse Thomas preaches from Ephesians 3:14-21 on September 14, 2025.

9/7/2025 - 1 Corinthians 12:12-26 - Members of One Body by Richard Schwartz
As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.1 Peter 2:4-5God is always doing 10,000 things in your life, and you may be aware of three of them.John PiperWhat the Church is NOTWhat the Church isThe Church is NOT:Just a BuildingAnd let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.Hebrews 10:24-2516 But when I thought how to understand this, it seemed to me a wearisome task,17 until I went into the sanctuary of God; then I discerned their end.Psalm 73:16-17The Psalmist did not merely go to the building, he went to meet with God.Martyn Lloyd JonesWhat a wonderful place God's house is. Often you will find deliverance by merely coming into it… People who neglect attendance at the house of God are not only being unscriptural—let me put it bluntly—they are fools.Martyn Lloyd JonesA SupplementFor MeA seeker-sensitive church (or seeker-church) is a model of ministry and worship designed to be especially accessible, welcoming, and understandable to unchurched or spiritually curious people (“seekers”). The goal is to remove barriers that might make non-Christians feel out of place and to present the gospel in a culturally relevant way.Stop looking for the perfect church. It does not exist. Even if it did exist, the moment you or I joined it, it would no longer be perfect.Nicky GumbleAn organization of minimal impactPETER'S CRUCIFIXION*DIETRICH BONHOEFFER*The Church is:Christ's BodyFor as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.Romans 12:4-5The Church is not a religious community of worshippers of Christ but is Christ himself who has taken form among people.Dietrich BonhoefferBut Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 2 and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. 3 Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. 4 And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?”Acts 9:1-4InheritedSo then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,Ephesians 2:19-20For Jesus21 in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. 22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by[e] the Spirit.Ephesians 2:21-2225 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 27 so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.Ephesians 5:25-27The Hope of the WorldIf the Church is central to God's purpose, as seen in both history and the gospel, then it must surely also be central to our lives.John Stott
Shhhh, don't tell Gemma, but Kev's got GAS and he's starting a cider business! That surely won't help! This time it's a telescope, and we reckon at FujiCast HQ he's hidden it in one of those shopping bags he keeps to sneak new gear into the house. On the show today, a little more on connecting cameras to telescopes, standing desks for your health, should I change my primes for one single zoom to go one body one lens, video tips including grading and sound.
